BeggaPS of Paris.
Not i few Paris beggars Mhve be
tome historical. Years ago there was
a femal'e mendicant without legs and
with only one arm who could by a
trick in her breathing produce in her
interior a sound like the tick of a pen- t
dulum. "Listen, ladies and gentle
men," she used to exclaim. "I have a
clock in my stomach!" Her gaping
auditors used thereupon to apply an
ear to her back. It was true. There was
a clock inside her. They could hear it t:
tick. Formerly at one end of the Pont I
Neuf there sat an old blind man, ac- I
companied by a poodle. Enveloped in f
a large overcoat with seven plaits, he t
did nothing all day but keep a pair of i
expressionless eyes directed toward s
heaven and shake his tin money box
from time to time. It was a tradition
in Paris that he had given his daugh
ter a dowry of 300,000 francs on the
occasion of her marriage to a notary.
and that in the evening after rattling T
his money box all day the old man
could often be seen in a box at the
opera, to which he had driven In his
carriage.-London Globe.
Indestructible Lizards.
The tuatara lizard, found in New
Zealand, Is one of the most ancient
forms of animal life now found on
earth. Originally this lizard pos- c
sessed four eyes, but In the course of
ages it has lost one pair and must
now get along with two. The tuatara
lay eggs which are remarkable in that E
they require fourteen months to hatch, I'
the embryo passing the winter in a
state of hibernation. These small
survivors of past ages are found only a
in a few localities and are becoming i2
very scarce, collectors from every part 0
of the world being continually on their i
trail. They are about two feet in t
length and In common with other liz
p
ards have the fortunate characteristic e
of being able to replace portions of s;
their limbs or tails which haveqbeen E
destroyed. It is asserted that de of
these lizards owned by a naturalist
had the misfortune some time ago to
lose an eye and that a complete new r
eye, perfect in every way, has grown 14
ln the place of the old one. d
A Crab That Makes its Own Wig. V
There is a small crab found upon h3
the English coast that is so afraid of y
his enemies that he has found out or ji
has perhaps been taught a clever way c
to ide himself. The writer once saw 1<
one of these crabs which was kept as J
a pet, and he was lucky enough to vis- g
It him when he was In the very act of v
maing his wig. The crab first tore r
off a piece of green ribbonlike seaweed e
with his pincers and put one end in his
mouth. This he sucked and nibbled
and mpistened with some kind of glue
that hardens under water, and then he b
pressed- the sticky endupon his back. 0
By and by his broad back was covered t
with a regular green and waving wig,
so that as he crawled about he looked b
like a bunch of seaweed in gentle mo- C
tion. We must suppose that he makes s
a very sweet mouthful for a hungry e
fish and that he makes the wig to
preserve him from being gobbled up.
From time to time the-wig requires re
peing, of course.-aa Yoga Messen- a

Miseries of the Red Sea.
In the waters of the Red sea the ces
sation of the engines on a steamer for g
an hour means extreme physical suf- u
fering for passengers; for a day it
would involve absolute torture. The
wind which prevails every day is a
hot, asphyxiating blast, and Its con- y
tinuous directions are from north and a
south toward the center. As a result
every passing vessel is subjected to r
two days of almost intolerable heat, s
followed by two days of comparative p
comfort, but instances have been 3
known of crowded liners being com
pelled when traveling with the wind
to turn round and steam back for an
* hour or so In order to give the pas
sengers even a brief respite from the
*sufferings induced by the dull, dead,
unbearable atmosphere.
What Twice Half Might Do.

after this speech he overheard two

Old Brother Brivn had been ap
roached several times b' the colored
eacons of his church and asked to
ay his church dues. He had prom
;ed to "pay up" just as soon as he
old a calf which he owned. Several
ionths later he sold the calf. The next
inday morning at service the con
regation sang the old familiar hymn:
The half has never been told
Of life so full and free.
Brother Brown, somewhat deaf and
onscious of his failure to pay his
ues, understood the words to be:
The calf has never been sold,
But when it's sold he'll pay.
When the hymn was finished the old

A Costly Tuft of Feathers.
On the apex of the crown worn by
ae Prince of Wales on special occa

aft of feathers, the top of which is
dorned with a gold thread. The value
f this feather is estimated at $50,000.
nd it has the distinction of being the
nly one of Its kind in human posses
ion. Twenty years passed after the
rst hunter set out to procure the
mther before it was attained, and
uring that period more than a dozen
unters had lost their lives in the

a the fact that the periwak, for some

Variety in Punlshnient.
It was one of the vagaries of me
dieval law that various local courts
executed their will on prisoners with
out Interference from the higher
courts, says "The Customs of Old Eng
land." They exhibited considerable
ingenuity in the treatment of prison
ers. Here Is a case at Liverpool in
October. 1505: "One Thomas Johnson
had been apprehended for picking
purses. Apparently be underwent no
regular trial, but was dealt with sum
marily, the program being as follows:
First he was imprisoned several days
and nights, and then he was nailed
by the ear to a post at the flesh sham
bles. As the next item he was turned
out naked from the middle upward.
and many boys with withy rods whip
ped him out of the town. He was
then locked to a clog with an iron
chain and horse block until the Fri
day morning following and finally ab
jured the town before the mayor and
bailiffs, at the same time making res

Guile of the Drongo Cuckoo.
The drongo shrike is a bird of pug
naclous disposition. especially at the
nesting season. when it guards Its nesi
with, for a small bird, great ferocity.
Douglas Dewar, from whom this ae
count is taken, says that he has watch
ed a pair of these little birds attack
and drive away a monkey which tried
to climb into the tree In which theIr
nest was placed. Indeed, so able a
fighter is the shrike that some other
birds, notably orioles and doves, fre
quently build their nests In the same
tree in order to share the benefit of his
prowess. The drongo cuckoo lays Its
eggs In the nests of such birds as the
king crow. These are pugnacious
even ferocious, and without some guile
a cuckoo could not accomplish this
feat But the drongo cuckoo is so like
the drongo shrike, even having the
same odd twist to its tail feathers, that
the king crow is deceived by the re
semblance and hesitates to give fight
to what she takes to be one of the pug
nacious shrikes.-New York World.
A Joke on Her Neighbor.
A queer old woman had a horse
which was the pest of the neighbor
hood. It especially delighted in graz
ing on a certain neighbor's lawn. This
was a great annoyance to him; but,
not wishing to have any trouble. he
decided to buy the old horse. He
made the woman an offer of $10 for
the old animnal which she declined.
About two weeks later she came to
her neighbor one day and told him she
was very sorry to part with the horse,
but as she was In need of a little mon
ey she had decided to accept his offer.
The neighbor said. "Very well," and,
drawing out his pusse, handed her
$10. She thanked him profusely and
started to leave when the man be
thought himself and said, "Where
shall I send to get the horse, madam?"
"Oh. he is dead down yonder In the
canyon," the woman calmly replied
and marched on out.
Lightning Kills Few.
In 1906 lightning killed only 169 peo
pIe in this whole country. One's chances
of death by lightning are less than two
in a million. The chance of death fromo
liver, kidney or stomach trouble is vast
iy greater, but not if Electric Bitters be
used, as Robert Madsen, of West Bur
lington. Ia., proved. Four doctors g.. r
him up after eight months of suffering
from virulent liver trouble and yellow
jaundice. He was then completely cur

Greenland's Exclusiveness.
Greenland, with its icy mountains, Is
very esclusive, and.so far from Inviting
visitors, It even makes it inconvenient
for tourists to land on the little bit of
occasionally green land that surrounds
Its great heart of perpetual ice. Per
mission must be had from Denmark.
Denmark is, Indeed, very careful and
eonservative in the management of
Greenland affairs. The trade there is
monopolized by the state, and only
government vessels are welcomed to
Greenland waters. This Is to protect
the Greenlanders from unscrupulous
merchants. The state also fixes both
the price they shall pay for food and
the price they shall sell at.
